ALMOST - A STRUGGLE TO EXPLAIN

almost an artist
but destroyed
by the tv headache

by the ennui

& 

the time machines demands

of multitudes legion

almost wise

& bursting with an exposition
of 

the pain the clouds the life . . .

well thats not quite right


~

insight explanations 

almost
almost
on the tip of my coffee burnt tongue

but this almost 

this thing 

almost a sensation

& not quite a gut 

never more than 
almost almost Something

my own interior tease

~

conclude

it

is -

a beautiful love child 

of delusion & aged decay

that

i 

will

express with just 

a simple sweep 

of one hand

my sleepy eyes

holding the rest 

in mysterious check

why not why not why not

PICASA MADRIGALS - FLUFF DUST

DIDEROT REDUX

only when the last monarch
is 

  Strangled

by
the
guts
of
the last priest

only when the last mogul
is 

  Drowned

in
the
blood
of
the last politician

can 
we 
be 
free 
from 

  Everyday Assassination

then we -
the prole soldiers
the prostitutes
the cash-cows
     &
the cleaners

  can 
    decay 
      like anything else
        but
          safely
          in 
          love
          and 
          peace
